I guess he wanted to use a plate

@LadyDuck Nico does that sometimes

@snowy22315 - They can be so silly. Gevi did not drink from the bowl, he put is paw in the water and licked it.

@snowy22315 - They are cute when they do that.

@JudyEv

I guess he thought it was an emgency snack.

Once upon a time it was considered good manners to leave a little on the plate.

Maybe they want to be peopleish..

@Juliaacv She had it all figured out! Beau hid all his bones in the house..I would find them in odd places..in the bed under laundry..in a shoe etc.

@snowy22315 After work my hubs would get out 2 doggie biscuits and give Nayla one, and she would bring it down the hallway to our son's room, move the pillow, and place it there, and then move the pillow back. Then she would proceed back to the kitchen because she knew that Dad took out 2 cookies and he would still be holding one, so she would take that one and eat it, and have a spare for later. Of course she did this during her last few years, after Jonathon had moved away to university. She was such a funny dog.

It was cute.

My cat won't eat dry unless he is fairly hungry.

@TheHorse They can...unless very hungry all food has to pass the smell test.

@snowy22315 Cats can be snobs.

I know raccoons do it. I don't know what your equivalent is..

@snowy22315 Maybe some of our little marsupials do it but I haven't heard of it. It was raccoons I was thinking of.

He likes to have breakfast and or dinner in bed.

Quirky pets..my sister's cat drinks out of a sippy cup.

@snowy22315 our Westie would drink tea from my Dads cup ….( Dad then used another cup for another cup of tea )

Of course they probably think we have quirks too! Half the time I imagine my cat is thinking What the heck is she doing now?

@snowy22315 You're probably right.

Who really knows what goes on in those strange little heads of theirs?
